you’ve come a long way

As a change of pace from focusing on what isn’t working or what I no longer have or what I did wrong, I decided to take time to look back at my accomplishments.

I realize how much I have grown. I feel good about how I took the lessons I learned from others and used them to my advantage. I am proud of who I am “because” of all the things I experienced. I am so happy to have moved past painful times and learned to love and give again.

Today I choose to use this newfound strength as a cause for celebration, and as the foundation to create the best possible future.
